Beautiful deep reflection
On Great and Holy Wednesday the Church focus is on the fallen woman who repents. Great emphasis is made in the liturgical services to compare the sinful woman who is saved, to Judas, a chosen apostle who is lost. The one gives her wealth to Christ and kisses his feet; the other betrays Christ for money with a kiss...
“Judas stretched forth his hand to the lawless. She sought the remission of her sins, while he took the pieces of silver. The harlot brought myrrh to anoint the Lord; the disciple made an agreement with the lawless. She rejoiced when she spent the precious myrrh; he set out to sell Him who has no price. She recognized her Master, while he departed from his Master. She was freed from sin, but he became the captive of sin.” -

"His blood be on us, and on our children"
Matthew 27:23-26
And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified. 24. ¶When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it. 25. Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children. 26. ¶Then released he Barabbas unto them: and when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified.

It is now CRIMINAL to state the historical fact that
Jews were involved in the crucifixion of The Lord
America basically just technically & effectively banned the Bible to appease its evil foreign rulers & masters....
House passes bill to define alleging Jewish involvement in Christ’s crucifixion as antisemitism, with 320-91 majority.

"The mercy [of God] that raises us up after we have sinned is even greater than the mercy by which He gave us being, when we did not yet exist. Glory, O Lord, to Thine immeasurable mercy!" Thus speaks St. Isaac the Syrian. He means that greater is the mercy that God showed toward us when, through Christ, He saved us from the corruption of sin and death, than when He created us from nothing. Truly, it is so. Even earthly parents show greater mercy to a perverted and fallen son when they embrace him again, forgive him all, make him civilized, cleanse him, heal him, and again make him their heir, than when they gave him birth.
The Prologues from Ohrid

The tyrant has been destroyed by Thy crucifixion, O Christ.
The might of the enemy has been trampled down.
For neither an angel nor a man
But Thou Thyself hast saved us.
O Lord, glory to Thee!

Holy Friday
(Incomplete translation but you'll get the point clearly)
Today He was hung on a wood
Him who hung the earth on the waters
X3
A crown of thorns placed on the head of the king of the Angels
By a word of a liar who pointed at the Father of the clouds
Him who ... Adam in the Jordan
Nailed by nails and the Son of the virgin was pierced by a spear
We prostrate to Your pains oh Christ x3
So show us Your glorious Resurrection

Holy Friday
1 Thessalonians 2:14-16
For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in Judea are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like things of your own countrymen,
even as they have of the Jews: 15. Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men: 16. Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sins alway: for the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.

Holy Friday Verse
Matthew 27:62-64
...Now the next day, that followed the day of the preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate, 63. Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I will rise again. 64. Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night, and steal him away, and say unto the people, He is risen from the dead: so the last error shall be worse than the first.

Pascha is not just a yearly feast, not just an unchanging event of the yearly cycle. With every year we are nearer to death, nearer to the decision of our eternal lot. And if our union with God does not become closer from year to year, our faith stronger, and our attachment to the world weaker, it means we are not preparing well for this step.
